Knight's countless hours of research comes alive as pieces of the puzzle are put back together taking the reader to the infancy of America where they will experience a story buried deep in turmoil and deceit with the many variable parts assembled long ago to hoodwink the councils and courts and allow a powerful earl to retain his head. Now, Unveiled - The Twenty & Odd sheds new light on the first Africans, finally allowing them to take their true place in history.
